Right out of the box it looked perfect but when I went to take my 1st sip the lid only opened up to about 60-70 degrees so the lid would hit me in the face. The only way I could drink from it was to tilt my head way back making very uncomfortable to drink. It was easily fixed. The pewter is fairly malleable and I was able to slowly bend the lid back and then re-adjust it to the rim of the cup and then bend thumb tab up so I could get the lid to open up to about 110 degrees. I can now drink from it very comfortably. After the small fix I love it.
